WOW. I’m extremely interested in seeing what the chassis looks like and how that hinge mechanism under the bed functions.

Per the Top Gear piece, the Chiron, “flat-out... will drain its fuel tank in nine minutes.”

Buy it off of them cheap, resuscitate it, and love it when it’s running again! It’s not too late to make another new years resolution!

You say that, but Mercedes had been using circular vents across multiple models for well over a decade by the time the W123 came along.

Oooh, a touring. Jealous. The seats are perfect for me too. That said, I let my mom take mine for a spin over the holidays and I learned that the lower limit of comfortable driver height is about 5'-3” (she’s 5'-2").

Do with this suggestion what you will, but I think you should get another!

Big fan of the W123 myself.

Tilt some of those gauges and controls towards me; I’m trying to drive over here.

Beige 99 Corolla. Not even gonna post a pic because you can already see it in your mind’s eye. (Also why would I ever photograph it?)

I do indeed! https://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ram/cto/d/1997-bmw-m3-5-speed/6432727007.html

This year...

What’s your budget and what do you consider ideal? I know of a nice one for sale.

Whoa now them’s fighting words.

I reinstated it, sorry.

Yeah, fuck people like bloggers who blog about things on their blogs!

We’ll have all been wiped out by some kind of superbug or nuclear war before climate change can kill us all.

I’ve been weirding out the in-laws big time. European-spec corner lamps are a little pricey, so I recommended a new idle air control valve and they’re all like “Really? That doesn’t seem like much of a gift,” and I keep telling them that a smooth idle is the gift that keeps on giving.

Boy did this escalate.
